Hi, all!
Just a quick note to report that the Alternate VNC Field Trip had great
success with the lady Crimson-collared Grosbeak being right on time this
morning at the feeder area at Sabal Palm Grove, arriving about 10:01, giving
decent looks back in the tangles and then finally coming in to the water
feature!
We looked for the kittiwake at Isla Blanca Park but dipped--wind was
ferocious! Guy caught a HUGE Black Drum, tho...
Ran into several Bird-a-thoners at Estero Llano dipping as we did on the
Wood Duck and Prairie Falcon, but lots of other pretty ducks were about
(including Cinnamon Teal). Then went down to the Progresso granaries and
found
several Yellow-headed Blackbirds as promised by those who had just seen
them (i.e. John Brush and Gary Davidson)! :-)
